A Solution to Help with Stress Tolerance
BioBuild® C-Green Amino + II is a seaweed extract fortified with organic acids in combination with N-amino acids + a soil penetrating agent to help any plant mitigate stress. C-Green Amino + II can be used in corn, soybeans, wheat, alfalfa and veggies as in-furrow/2×2 starter, transplant water solution or foliar application with crop protection products, fertilizer, or other biological products. We recommend applying C-Green Amino + II just prior to a stress event or immediately following the event for best activity and faster recovery.
Why C-Green Amino + II?
C-Green Amino + II provides stress mitigation to the plant later in the season and under hot and dry or cool and wet conditions. Formulated for in-furrow, 2×2 and foliar applications, this product can be mixed with crop protection, fertilizer or other biological products when applied as a foliar application. C-Green Amino + II includes a soil penetrating agent to keep the seaweed extract, organic acids and amino acids in the soil profile available to the plant without losing them through the soil with water leachate. The seaweed extracts in C-Green Amino + II are loaded with natural plant-growth hormones such as auxins and cytokinins and fortified with organic acids with N-amino acids in one application. Organic acids work even better when combined with seaweed extracts; they hold onto plant-growth hormones in an exchangeable form to amplify their effects on plants.
What are the benefits of Amino Acids?
Plants have the capacity to biosynthesize all the amino acids required from nitrogen, carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. The biosynthesis of amino acids is complex and energy consuming. As such, the application of amino acids allows the plant to save energy on this process which can be dedicated to improving plant development during critical growth stages or times of stress.
Amino acids are fundamental to a plant for protein synthesis. Naturally produced N-amino acids, found in C-Green Amino+ II, are synthesized by the plant at specific phases of development. These phases include nitrogen mobilization in germinating seeds, nitrogen recycling in vegetative cells in response to stress and nitrogen remobilization during seed embryogenesis. The supplement of amino acids in essential quantities can improve the overall quality of crops leading to improved yield potential.
Application Timing:
C-Green Amino + II application works best in-furrow or in transplant water solutions. The application use-rate should be increased when applied away from the seed or roots in a below ground application. C-Green Amino + II should be applied at the V3-V5 stage in corn and/or later in beans, but consult with your Sunrise Agronomy Solutions Advisor for final application timing.
